Understanding Your Result

Date and time results depend on the reference timezone — all calculations here use the local system clock. For legal or contractual purposes, "days between" dates should be clarified as calendar days (counting the end date) vs. business days (excluding weekends and public holidays). Age calculations use full completed years — someone born on December 31 is the same age as someone born on January 1 of the same year for most legal purposes until their actual birthday.
